Most of us don’t have a set up this accurate, but are still able to lock on on a faint deep sky object for hours on end (clouds permitting) to grab those valuable photons that eventually make up our images. In an ideal world, we’d set up our telescopes, on our very accurate mounts, that are accurately polar aligned and no matter where we pointed our telescope and camera, we’d be able to lock in on a target for hours on end to capture those faint DSOs without a care for any object slowly drifting out of view.
